After Daniel's performance, Ryan introduced more of the contestants leaving only two contestants left. Payton and Sarina- Joi. "Now, we are left with our last two contestants and we'll see who makes it." Ryan says. Payton is hunched over with Daniel holding her hand. "And the last contestant to make it through is..." Ryan says opening the envelope. The cameras point to both Sabrina and Payton. "Payton Vaughns." Ryan announces and everyone screams and claps. Payton looks up in shock and sees her chair is green. She stands up and hugs Daniel and he kisses her on the cheek. She hugs Sarina and heads to the stage. She goes to her piano and starts playing Life Of The Party by Shawn Mendes. The room is dark and everyone has their glow sticks up in the air. Payton finishes and everyone cheers and claps. "Payton!!!!!" Harry smiles at her. Payton stands up and walks towards the judges. "Hi!" Payton smiles. "How do you feel?" Harry asks. "Relieved!" Payton laughs. "I think that was one of your best performance and you really got into the song and that's what I like." Harry explains. "Yea beautiful, you are very talented and very adorable and I think we are gonna see you next week." JLo smiles. "Thank you!" Payton blushes. "I loved it. It was a good song for you and everyone else seemed to enjoy it." Keith smiles. "Thank you so much!" Payton smiles. Ryan comes out and congratulates Payton. Payton goes back to her green chair next to Daniel and hugs him tightly. Sarina performed for a save but eventually didn't get it. But, Sabrina was still able to stay and watch Daniel and Payton perform. "After the break, the two contestants everyone voted for will be revealed. So we'll be back!" Ryan announces and the cameras go off. Payton and Daniel go backstage and the stage gets set up. They warm up and review singing their parts. The performance was gonna be, amazing, emotional and strong. The plan was for Daniel and Payton to stand on the sides of the stage. And in the first verse when they sing their parts, spotlights will be on them individually. (Sorry if that's confusing).
"Are you ready?" Daniel asks Payton. Payton takes and deep breath and nods. "It's our first time officially performing together and I don't know if I would be good." Payton says. "Hey, we practiced for this. You got this and you can do this." Daniel looks at Payton. "You really think so?" Payton asks looking into Daniel's blue eyes. Daniel smiles and kisses Payton. "I know so." Daniel smiles. Payton hugs Daniel and they stay that way until it was time to go on.
"Welcome back!!" Ryan says to the audience. "Right now we have our top 11 chosen and now, the moment we have all been waiting for..." Ryan starts to say. "The two contestants you voted for are revealed." Ryan smiles. The stage is dark and no one can see who's there. The music started and a spotlight went on reveling Daniel.
[Daniel:]
Sick of all the people talkin' 'bout me
When they don't really know me
They don't really see the same as I see
Well, I know what I'm supposed to be.
Daniel sings and the spotlight turns off and then the light was only revealing Payton.
[Payton:]
People show me love but then they judge me
Why they gotta treat me so shady?
They think that they sit above all things
But really, in the shadows they are drowning
Payton sings and then the light was both on Daniel and Payton revealing them both. And everyone screams and cheers.
[Both:]
I've had enough, had enough, had enough
But I'll never give up
I've had enough, had enough, had enough
But I'll never give upWhen all else fails, all else fails
Love will be there, love will be there
And time will tell, time will tell
Who really cares, who really cares
All's well that ends well
And I'll be there to figure this out
When all else fails, all else fails
Love will be there, love will be there
I'm After the chorus, Daniel walks up to the front of the stage and sing his part.
[Daniel:]
It feels like I'm living in a bad dream
But positivity is what will save me
They never said that it'd be easy
But until you put in the work, you're not worthy
Payton then walks up to where Daniel was and sings her part.
[Payton:]
I don't know where the path may lead
But focusing on the light will help me see
I'm not scared to get my hands dirty
As long as I finish strong on my journey
They sing the chorus again and look at each other with emotion in their eyes and look at the crowd knowing that this is actually happening. They finish their song and everyone claps and cheers. The judges and other contestant gave them a standing ovation. Payton had tears in her eyes and Daniel smiled and wiped them and hugged her tightly. They both smile and walk up toward the judges. "Well well well!" Harry smiles. "Don't start harry." Keith tells harry and laughs. "That was...very outstanding!" Harry smiles. "Thank you." Payton smiles. "I loved the emotion you were showing and you guys sound amazing together and it was just perfect!" Harry smiles. "Thank you." Daniel smiles. "You guys were amazing and I'm glad you guys sang together because well you guys are adorable together!" JLo smiles. "And the fact that two of our youngest contestants performed is just amazing and you guys were meant to be together." JLo laughs. "Now, is this your first time singing together?" Keith asks. "In front of everyone yes." Daniel answers. "Well you guys did incredible and it was very passionate and I loved." Keith smiles. "Thank you." Payton smiles and everyone claps and cheers and Ryan comes out to the two. "Well, we all finally got to hear the two together!" Ryan smiles. "Yes! It was amazing and I loved it!" Daniel smiles. "Now, tell me, why did you chose this song? What's the meaning behind it?" Ryan asks. "Well we chose it because of the meaning behind it and that meaning is that everyone tells us that we can't do it. We won't accomplish our dreams but we have proven them that we can and that's the whole point to the song." Payton explains. "Well it was amazing and I'm sure everyone loved it! Give it up for Daniel and Payton!" Ryan says and everyone cheers. The show ended and everyone met backstage. "You guys did awesome!!!" Maddie runs over to Daniel and Payton. "Thank you!" Payton smiles. "You were beautiful!" Maddie smiles and walks away.

Payton and Daniel were back at their hotel and looking at tweets and hanging out. "Thanks Daniel." Payton looks at Daniel. "For what?" Daniel asks. "For doing this with me. Performing together meant everything to me." Payton stands up and walks over to Daniel and sits next to him. "It meant the world to me as well." Daniel smiles putting his arm around Payton and Payton lays her head on his shoulder. "Being here doing what I love with who I love is just insane." Payton laughs. "Good kind of insane right?" Daniel laughs. "Yes!" Payton laughs. "This only comes once in a lifetime you know? I'm glad that chance is here." Payton smiles up at Daniel. Daniel smiles and kisses Payton. "I'm just glad I'm with you." Daniel smiles and Payton blushes. The rest of the night they hang out and watch movies and look at tweets.
"Daniel and Payton were perfection tonight! @SeaveyDaniel @VaughnsPayton" someone tweets
"#relationshipgoals" someone tags them with a picture of them performing.
Payton posted the picture of her Yazz and Jussie and captioned. "Had so much fun today. These studs killed it." Payton tagged Yazz and Jussie and tweeted it.
"Hey can I have a Twizzler?" Payton asks Daniel who has a big bag full of Twizzlers. "Sure!" Daniel smiles handing Payton a piece. Then she ends up eating half the bag.
"PAYTON KEEPS EATING MY TWIZZLERS!" Daniel tweeted and mentioned Payton. Payton saw it and laughed. "But bae!!! They are good!" Payton tweets Daniel back. She keeps eating them and Daniel gets annoyed. "Stop eating them!!" Daniel laughs. "Too late!" Payton laughs and takes the bag and runs away. "Hey!!!" Daniel says chasing Payton around the room. "Want these?" Payton teases Daniel with the bag. "Dude, give it." Daniel demands. "Nahh." Payton laughs and runs away to the bathroom and locks herself in there.
"Payton literally locked herself in the bathroom with the bag." Daniel tweeted. Payton comes out with the half eaten bag. "Payton!" Daniel whines. "There's still some for you!" Payton laughs sitting down. Daniel takes out his phone and opens up the Twitter video. He records the half eaten bag. "See, Payton literally ate half of the bag." Daniel says looking at the bag. "How do you feel about eating my Twizzlers?" Daniel points the camera to Payton who's next to him. "It wasn't me..." Payton whines. "Ok..I'm sorry." Payton pouts. "I'm gonna kill her." Daniel turns back to the bag and stops recording. "You love me!!!!" Payton takes another twizzler. "I don't knowww....you ate my candy." Daniel laughs. Payton takes the Twizzler and sways it in front of Daniel face. "Are you trying to hypnotize me??? With a Twizzler?" Daniele laughs. "Maybe." Payton smiles and eats the Twizzler. Payton and Daniel take a picture of them both with the same Twizzler with them eating it from each side and they post them.
"I didn't kill her everyone! She's still my Twizzler ☺️💕" Daniele tweeted and tagged Payton. "Is that my new nickname now?" Payton asks. "I guess it is!" Daniel laughs.
"I'm his Twizzler 😘💕" Payton tweeted and tagged Daniel.
